Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] Industrial Application Field The present invention relates to a two-tub washing machine that reuses bath water and the like.

Conventionally, in this type of two-tub washing machine, as shown in FIG. , water was being poured directly into the washing tub 4.

Problems that the invention aims to solve: However, in the conventional configuration, bath water, etc. was directly injected, so hair contained in bath water, etc.
Dirt and grime could not be removed and would adhere to the laundry and re-contaminate it, making it extremely unsanitary.

This invention solves these problems, and by removing the dirt contained in bath water, etc., it reuses bath water in a sanitary manner, increases the water saving effect, and improves the temperature of the bath water. To provide a two-tub washing machine that improves washing performance by using bath water.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the two-tub washing machine of the present invention has a water inlet section to which an external hose connected to a pump that supplies bath water can be detached, and a water inlet section. A water receiving part opening into the washing tub to receive water from the washing tub, and a circulating water channel formed from the bottom of the washing tub having rotary blades at the bottom to the peripheral wall and circulating washing water by rotation of the rotary blade, The upper opening of this circulating water channel and the opening of the water receiver are arranged close to each other, both of these openings are downward openings, and these openings are covered with a lint filter.

Effect With the above configuration, when bath water, etc. is injected, it flows from the opening of the water receiver into the washing tub through the lint filter, but the opening of the water receiver is not communicated with the circulating water channel and is Because of this arrangement, bath water, etc. does not flow into the circulating water channel. Further, the circulating water flows through the circulation channel and flows out from the upper opening into the washing tub via the lint filter.

Embodiment Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. In the figure, a pump 2 for pumping up bath water 1 and a water injection unit 5 are connected by a detachable external hose 3. The water receiving portion 7 located below the water injection portion 5 has an opening 10 at the bottom. A rotary blade 9 is provided at the bottom of the washing tub 4, a circulating water channel 10 is formed from the bottom to the same wall, and an upper opening 11 is provided above the water channel 10. The upper opening 11 and the opening 7a of the water injection part are arranged close to each other, and the openings 7a, 11 are covered with a lint filter 8. The openings 7a, 11 are opened downward, The bath water injected from the part 7a is configured not to flow into the circulating water channel 10 side, and the lint filter provided in the circulating water channel 10 is also used for collecting dirt from the bath water.
A blade 12 is provided on the back surface of the rotary blade 9 to send water from the bottom of the washing tub 4 to a circulating water channel 10.

In the above configuration, the bath water 1 is injected from the external hose 3 through the water injection part 5, and the water receiving part 7
It flows into the washing tub via the lint filter 8. At this time, since the lower end of the water receiving portion 7 extends below the opening 11 of the circulating water channel 10, the bath water 1 is not injected through the circulating water channel 10, and the lint is always removed. All the dirt in the bath water 1 is removed through the lint filter 8.
will be collected. In addition, as shown in FIG. 2, in the normal washing process, water in the washing tub 4 passes through the circulating water channel 10 to the upper part due to the pump-up effect caused by the rotation of the blades 12 formed on the back surface of the rotary blade 9. Water is sent to the opening 11 and flows out into the washing tub 4 via the lint filter 8 for circulation. Therefore, the lint from the laundry 13 is also reliably collected by the lint filter 8. Further, as shown in FIG. 3, by arranging a plurality of water receiving parts 7, it is also possible to switch the position of the water injection part 5 and directly inject water into the washing tub side and the dewatering tank side. be.

By arranging a plurality of water receiving portions 7 as described above, normal water can be poured into the washing tub and the dewatering tub.

Effects of the invention As is clear from the examples above, according to the invention, bath water, etc. can be reused easily and cleanly, water can be saved, and the bath water can be kept at a hot temperature. If used, the cleaning rate can also be improved.

Furthermore, the number of parts is the same as the conventional one, and the above functions can be added without any increase in cost.
